YouTube v.s. Vimeo – The Faceoff

When it comes to video embedding and sharing, there are many options such as BlipTV2, Flickr, and Photobucket just to name a few. However two leaders that continue to stand out among all others as the top video streaming services are YouTube and Vimeo.

So what are some major differences between the two? And what makes one better than the other? I pulled together a comparison chart to see how they both measure up to help answer that question:

Great post! Let me say that as a graphic designer I tend to prefer Vimeo. However, I have found Youtube more embedding-friendly. It took me a while to embed a Vimeo video in my blog (http://25dePie.blogspot.com) because I had to go to the HTML tab of my post, whereas with Youtube, it was more a copy+paste thing. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that Youtube and Blogger are somehow related via Google.
